What's your favorite Healer tool so far and why?

Essential Dignity! It's saved so many fights!

I really like my barriers, so Stoneskin, Adloquium, and Nocturnal Aspected Benefic (super pretty).

If the barrier is strong enough, you can outright block knockbacks and status effects (even the unique ones you can't esuna off, like tank swap mechanic debuffs)

SCH: Indomitability: AoE 400 pot heal w/ no mana cost. Powerful. (And yes. It costs one stack..but good sch know how to manage stacks of aetherflow).

AST: Just about any ability. They're all beautiful. But Gravity: -- if you notice, when you cast it, it lifts your character a bit. Fantastic.

Essential Dignity: Crit for 10-11k? Yes. I orgasm. It's fantastic to see those healing numbers. Basically restores someone to full/near full.

Collective Unconscious: I've always had a thing for protective bubble abilities. I honestly don't care that when you use it you get locked out of doing anything else. I love seeing her stand there - arms apart - keeping the group safe. Buff other abilities but leave that animation alone please.

Benediction cause when I fuck up with cleric stance, I can still save him with that.

Ed/Tetra cause they aren't affected by healing (de)buff and they are really instant (not like bene)

I have a love/hate relationship with Synastry. I love how I can split heal both tanks and get a 20% heal increase but at same the time I wish the 20% increase wasn't tied to it because I feel like I waste half of the abilities use when I only need the heal increase.

Lightspeed is very fun and satisfying. My favorite is as a tool to top everybody off after a big hard AoE in thordon.

My choice is plain and simple: Regen.

Seriously, it's the absolute bread and butter spell in the WHM's toolkit. If you don't already love it, then by all means learn to.

I think I'm bad for taking Regen for granted. It's freaking amazing.

Visually, my favorites are Holy, Collective Unconscious, Celestial Opposition, Aspected Helios, Succor and Helios.

Mechanically, my favorites are Assize, Synastry, Medica II, Indom, Divine Seal, Adlo.

Aetherflow

Summon I and Summon II are close runner-ups.
